Ebook About From the modern master of noir comes a novel based on the real-life Hollywood fixer Freddy Otash, the malevolent monarch of the 1950s L.A. underground, and his Tinseltown tabloid Confidential magazine.Freddy Otash was the man in the know and the man to know in ‘50s L.A. He was a rogue cop, a sleazoid private eye, a shakedown artist, a pimp—and, most notably, the head strong-arm goon for Confidential magazine. Confidential presaged the idiot internet—and delivered the dirt, the dish, the insidious ink, and the scurrilous skank. It mauled misanthropic movie stars, sex-soiled socialites, and putzo politicians. Mattress Jack Kennedy, James Dean, Montgomery Clift, Burt Lancaster, Liz Taylor, Rock Hudson—Frantic Freddy outed them all. He was the Tattle Tyrant who held Hollywood hostage, and now he’s here to CONFESS. “I’m consumed with candor and wracked with recollection. I’m revitalized and resurgent. My meshugenah march down memory lane begins NOW.” In Freddy’s viciously entertaining voice, Widespread Panic torches 1950s Hollywood to the ground. It’s a blazing revelation of coruscating corruption, pervasive paranoia, and of sin and redemption with nothing in between. Here is James Ellroy in savage quintessence. Freddy Otash confesses—and you are here to read and succumb.Book Widespread Panic: A novel Review :
James Ellroy’s new novel, WIDESPREAD PANIC is a masterpiece. It is also very different from the books in his new LA Quartet series. Potential readers should be clear on what they are buying and they should put the sometimes mixed reviews that the book is receiving in context. First, this book is not an epic. It does not result from one of Ellroy’s famous 700 pp. outlines, depicting a dizzying plot that is ultimately a piece of fine embroidery. It is a short book (319 pp.or so) and it could easily be broken up and form three novellas. It is a high-concept book. The narrator, famous ex-LAPD/PI/Fixer Freddy Otash is in purgatory. He has been in purgatory for 28 years. The only way he can extricate himself from purgatory is to confess, to both admit to his dreams and his sins and to enumerate them.His story is Ellroyesque. He is driven to help and love unattainable women (here, principally, Lois Nettleton, one of many historical figures who appear in the book). The setting is Ellroyesque in that postwar Los Angeles is every bit as pivotal a part of the book as its characters and plot. The narrator is a major player in that setting but one of his chief functions is to help reify and foreground that setting, bringing it to life in all of its dark and shabby glory. This is Ellroyesque in that it is a historical novel built on both real-life and fictional characters and it is bursting with material-culture artefacts and architecture. Men wear Sir Guy shirts and Sy Devore jackets. They shop and dine at landmark establishments. Ellroy’s ability to bring these materials to life is nothing short of dazzling. The book is principally Ellroyesque in its language. The compressed, hipster, Yiddish, KKKspeak is replete with alliteration and here we learn why: because alliteration is the mainstay of CONFIDENTIAL magazine and Freddy writes and consults for CONFIDENTIAL, the magazine that is the quintessential exemplar for 50’s L.A.—a blend of sex, violence, lies and uncomfortable truths, the magazine that rips the blankets off the comfortable and sedate 50’s and reveals what is seething beneath them.The language and rhetoric are so intense that the book reads like a prose poem, a lush interior monologue/autobiography/personal history/confession. It can be criticized for ‘lacking steady advance’ because breathless plotting is not its purpose. Its purpose is to reveal, to express, to exemplify, to reify. It is like a bible for the damned, the damned who desperately seek salvation and who can find it only through memory and language. If you read it for the plot (as Johnson said of Richardson’s CLARISSA) you will be disappointed, though there is a plot. You read it for the verbal artistry, you read it for the masterful historicity. The book is art, not amusement, craft, not entertainment. That is not to say that it is not amusing and entertaining. Think of it like this: dedicated, talented and flawed people struggled for success in a world that produced shlock and fed on human frailty. They created a dream factory filled with personal nightmares and were enslaved by it. It is not an accident that one of Michael Connelly’s central creations is an investigator named Hieronymus Bosch. Imagine a Boschian landscape depicted by a combination of Michelangelo and James Joyce, who is not permitted to represent heaven or heavenly figures, but rather the Brown Derby, Mocambo, the Ambassador Hotel, the Chateau Marmont and the beautiful faces and haunted souls who inhabit them. This is not the world of God reaching out to mankind; it is the world of Caryl Chessman putting red cellophane over his headlights and reaching out to violate young women. It is Freddy Otash’s world and no one can depict it like James Ellroy. Ellroy is a case of creative and emotional arrested development. His alliterative schtick is old. His characters--actual figures of postwar LA--are cyphers: thin, shallow and always further reduced to base instincts. This is a teenage boy's view of the world.
